Updated Jul 30, 2026
Overview
Maihem’s public footprint is split between an older MAIHEM AI-evaluation brand and a current maihem.com site that now brands the company as Tekton Dynamics, an AI control layer for welding robots. The current product positions existing industrial robots as autonomous expert welders using vision + edge AI, while the historical YC launch/docs describe AI agents for testing conversational AI.
